The Contemporary Glass Society invited members of the Guild of Glass Engravers to take part in an online selected exhibition "Making Marks" to run from 4th March 2024.

From the exhibition:
Alix Costin
Fetch
Two handblown and stacked vases which have been hand engraved
217mm x 183mm

My piece ‘Fetch’ is inspired by walks in my local park. Whilst on these walks I play fetch with my dog and collect foliage I find on the ground, which I then take home to draw from in order to create an illustrated log; like a foliage map of the park. ‘Fetch’ reflects the social areas which people use every day, and that we all take for granted.
